Last week LUSH launched an awesome new product for summer- a body scrub featuring sand as a main ingredient! Life’s A Beach Body Scrub is a mixture of sea salt, sand, and a vanilla scent that will leave your beach bod silky smooth.
Get scrubbed up and scent-sational! Made with natural exfoliants like fine sea salt and sand, Life’s A Beach is a gentle scrub that will help you buff away dry skin without harming the environment. We even gave it a scrumptious vanilla-caramel scent that will leave you kissed with the sweetest aroma. 100% of the purchase price will be donated to organizations protecting our waterways from microbead pollution.
I have been using this for almost 2 weeks, because I got it in a gift bag at Generation Beauty’s press event- so I was lucky to get a little sneak peek. I like this scrub because it doesn’t use microbeads, which don’t decompose and are littering the world’s waterways…all for a little exfoliation! Why not just use what the earth gave us, like sand? I haven’t thought of using sand to exfoliate before, but it makes a lot of sense because your feet always wind up baby soft after a day walking barefoot on the beach!
I do think the scrub it’s a bit rough, not gentle as they describe, but that makes it great for hard-to-exfoliate areas like the knees, ankles, and elbows. Just be gentle. I’d only recommend you using this in the shower, because it can get a bit messy around a sink- and I’m not sure I’d want to take a bath with sand! Don’t forget to moisturize after, as it doesn’t have any oil mixed in like other scrubs. I do find that it makes my skin softer than other scrubs, so yay!
Pick up this scrub ($6.95 for 3.30 oz.) at your local LUSH store- you won’t regret it! And remember “Life is a beach I’m just playin’ in the sand…”
